Verse 1:
Em G
Some of us are born and then
D C
some of us are born again
Em G
Some of us are scared to death
D C
and some just don't believe in
Em G D C
it Something is always wrong
Em G D
There's a lie an idea
C
I can't get behind
Em G
No one knows what's
D C Em G
right some try Some
D C
try to find a king
Chorus 1:
C
They sing "Who
G
will save us now?
It's our life but
Am
we don't want to live
C
it" We want to be
G
told now by something
or something who's
Am
better than us
C
Who we know
we can trust
D
Who'll always
Am
protect us but keep
us scared to death so
C
we never ask questions
D
Who'll dictate the
Am
consequences of our actions
C
and give us peace of mind
C
about our miserable lives
D
Confined and content
All we want is
Em G D C Em-G-D-C
a place we can hide
Verse 2:
Em
So we've always
G
fought our wars
D
for what we're told
C
is worth dying for
Em
Land and love and
G
god and wealth
D
but men in charge
C
protect themselves
Em G D
You can rest assured
that it's the
Em G D
young and the poor
C
who've fought all them
Em
Our wars led to
G D C
death by men who
Em G D
they chose and hoped
C
would protect them
Chorus 2:
C
and "Who will save
G
us now? It's our
Am
life but we don't
want to live it"
C
And all you'll get
G
is down because the
people you elect to
Am
protect your best interests
C
will just protect themselves
D
and all their investments
Am
and even the few with the
C
best of intentions will
D
just push their views
Am
what they think is right
C
for you and everyone
else You can't think
for yourself because
D
you've chosen to let
Em G D C Em-G-D-C-
someone else do it for you
Verse 3:
Em
So we're left to
G
drift between
D
our waking life and
C
all of our dreams
Em
Reality is
G D
relative and all
that's all the
C
advice I'll give
Em G D
Life and death are hard
C Em G
They're such strange
D C
and complicated issues
Em G
So listen and listen
D C Em G
well for insight
D
but no one knows
C
what's right for you
Chorus 3:
C G
"Who will save us now? It's
Am
a wrong and irrelevant question
C G
Because we figure it out
with the people who love us
Am
Who call us half brothers
C
for lessons we've learned
D
for our fathers and mothers
Am
not looking for someone
C
to find our solutions
D
Fight all our battles
Am
or show us what truth is
C
It's by working hard to
find our own peace of mind
D
Living and learning until we
Em G D C Em-G-D-C
know what's right for our lives
